These donut holes are pumpkin perfection.
As the leaves turn golden and the air grows crisp, there’s a familiar craving for all things pumpkin-spiced and these treats will hit the mark. Now, let’s be clear, these little bites won’t be sporting a shining health halo overhead (ahem!), but when compared to their classic counterparts, they’re a step in a more wholesome direction. Here’s why: First, they’re baked not fried. And second, they’re infused with real pumpkin puree so each bite not only encapsulates the essence of fall but also brings along the natural nutrients of this vibrant vegetable.
And a little tip: If you find yourself without a donut hole tin, simply use a mini muffin pan.
